Love it!! Most people wouldn’t think to do this, but by thinking outside the box you’ve made a kitchen that looks funky and stylish. I wish more people would be so bold with their interior decorating decisions.

Like some others, with my OCD these would drive me totally crazy. Also like some others, if they were at least all the same colour, it would be easier to swallow. All that said, I think it was an awesome idea for saving some major coin!

I rather like it, too, it’s got a certain charm about it that is comfy and isn’t trying too hard. The one thing I might have done to unify everything was treat it all to some distressing and random sanding and beating with heavy chains, and then using vastly more outlandish knobs. By my standards, he did not go wrong enough.

I love it. And I’m normally someone who freaks out when not everything is perfect. I think I might kill somebody if just one of them were different from the rest, but because of all the variety there, I think it looks awesome.

It seems to me that many commenters on this site will only appreciate a hack if it resembles the polished pictures you find in one of the many glossy home decor mags. While the colours of the cabinet doors may not be my favourites, I find it very well executed and I love the Tetris kind of feel to it!
